Starting over


In the cool of the morning the glistening blue ocean called out to the woman standing on the hotel balcony.  A slight breeze brought the fragrant scent of exotic blooms to her.  

Breathing in deeply, she sighed in contentment.  Coming here with Michael was a wonderful idea.  It gave them the opportunity to start over, to relax and explore their relationship.  Busy with careers and raising a family, they had found themselves sharing their home as virtual strangers.  

Mark came up behind her, slipped his arms around his wife of thirty years and nuzzled her neck.  “Beautiful view, isn’t it?”
